    Calculating the existing service is critical to adding new loads. Taking amp meter readings is only a snap shot in time. Now, following 220.87 is an option and other than an actual load calculation is the only option.

    So, you need demand data for 1 year. Now, their is an exception for 30 day, 15 minute peak data to be used.

    So, you take the max demand load provided and multiply it by 125% plus the new loads and it is not to exceed the existing service or feeder rating. In Lexi's case it did so it means that 220.87 was ONLY to be used to determine if the existing service can be used....

    Since it can't a NEW load calculation on the entire building is required and you DO NOT use the values given by the utility.

    Listen as Paul Abernathy, CEO, and Founder of Electrical Code Academy, Inc., the leading electrical educator in the country, as he answers more questions from the Let’s Ask Paul Portal over at www.PaulAbernathy.com. In this episode, Paul will tackle the questions submitted by a listener. The topic covered in this episode is about all the comments on Facebook for a post about HVAC Protection and circuit conductors sizing. The original poster got 100% correct but the following commentors just made me cringe. The fact that some people will openly post comments that are so wrong simply amazes me. In fact, here is link to the original post on facebook - https://www.facebook.com/share/p/8KW62wwtTuJRRuT5/?mibextid=oFDknk If you are looking to learn more about the National Electrical Code, for electrical exam preparation, or to better your knowledge of the NEC then visits https://fasttraxsystem.com for all the electrical code training you will ever need by the leading electrical educator in the country with the best NEC learning program on the planet.
